Configuring User NetExtender Settings
The following NetExtender settings can be configured for the user:
• Exit Client After Disconnect
- The NetExtender client exits when it becomes disconnected from the
SMA/SRA server. To reconnect, users should either return to the Secure Mobile Access portal and click
NetExtender or launch NetExtender from their Programs menu.
• Uninstall Client After Exit
- The NetExtender client automatically uninstalls when it terminates or
when the user selects Exit (as opposed to simply disconnecting). To reconnect, users should return to the
Secure Mobile Access portal and click NetExtender. This option only applies to Windows clients. It does
not apply to Android, Mac, or Linux clients.
• Create Client Connection Profile
- The NetExtender client creates a connection profile recording the
SMA/SRA server name, the domain name and optionally the username and password.
•
The
User Name & Password Caching
options provide flexibility in allowing users to cache their
usernames and passwords in the NetExtender client. The three options are
Allow saving of user name
only
,
Allow saving of user name & password
, and
Prohibit saving of user name & password
. These
options enable administrators to balance security needs against ease of use for users.
•
In the
Allow client to use Touch ID on IOS devices
, the control only blocks future attempts to log in with
fingerprint technology on IOS devices when the option is disabled as there is no method for the server to
change the client settings until the client attempts a connection. So in some cases, a client might not be
conforming to previous policies for the initial connection. Configuration is allowed globally, by group, or
per user.
•
In the
Allow client to use Fingerprint Authentication on Android devices
, the control only blocks
future attempts to log in with fingerprint technology on Android devices when the option is disabled as
there is no method for the server to change the client settings until the client attempts a connection. So
in some cases, a client might not be conforming to previous policies for the initial connection.
Configuration is allowed globally, by group, or per user.
TIP:
Unless more than one user is using the same username that is not recommended, there is no
need to configure more than one IP address for the user client IP address range.
